Is this a trick one where you end up with a little envelope (letter!) if you add a line horizontally to the top and bottom of the M ?? *crossesfingers*

Yes it is

Riding home one evening, a horseman tumbles into a ditch and bumps his head. The man is uninjured but when he crawls out, his horse is nowhere to be seen. Staggering home where he lives alone, he finds his horse in a locked stable, with the saddle and harness put away. What's going on?

Sleep walking?

a horseman tumbles into a ditch

He did that after he put his horse into the stable ...

No sleep walking and he's alone

@Kisa: but what about the fact that he was riding home?

He was on someone elses horse.

It's an intelligent horse!

Would need thumbs too

Nobody else is involved, just him and his things

Riddles like this are never very good

because there are so many possible answers but there is usually only one that follows all of the statements in the riddle

Did all this happen on the same evening?

He has two horses?

the most obvious answer is it's someone elses horse. The riddle says he was riding home but didn't mention that he was on HIS horse

so was nighthawk correct or not?
